If I can build it alone in a few weeks how can they be a unicorn? Where is the moat?

I hope you kill them

Good app. Strong retention. BUT, it’s not a Google killer. It is not a replacement to regular searches, it’s more a like a new news app or a Wikipedia alternative. Any thoughts?

They just fucking lying 🤥
If there were so unique and all how can I build it I just don’t get it. Like literally, can you tell me the difference between what I have built and what they have built?
I didn’t need $1 billion, not even $1 million, not even $100,000.

Bro is shilling like crazy

Aravind Srinivas is looking like a fraud. Many of us would think that since he has worked with famous scientists like Pieter Abeel and Sergey Levine, we automatically assume that Perplexity has developed innovative models for inference. As @SuperSaiyanGoku has shown, it's looking like one of OpenAI wrappers. This is another one of those startups that going to crash and burn.
We should also remember that once upon a time companies like WeWork, Theranos were also highly valued and considered a next big thing

When your product is good you don’t have to go to every interview and news channels. He has spent more time on interviews than actually building something unique.
Snake oil salesman 🐍

On the other hand, you should rewrite a blog or do YouTube videos on your webtool. It will land you ton of views and might lead to more opportunities !

Unicorn unicorn sat on a wall, valuation had a great fall

I use perplexity pro to use all the models at price of 1.

What models do they provide for Pro customers?

Sorry for late reply. They provide sonar from perplexity, gpt4 from openai, claude 3 sonnet and claude 3 opus from anthropic and mistral large from mistral.
And claude 3 opus is rate limited i.e. you can only ask 5 or 4 followups to a query from opus after this limit sonnet replies. You can open a new chat if you want to use opus.

This is another hyped thing. I have tried their pro and api. It is good but not like google killer. In fact i have been yearning to build my own solution using google serp for our product. I don't know why will someone not use gpt pro which has Bing connection for the same amount.

Eventually they will start introducing ads as well

Tried...good for research for PhD ...thesis related but no google alternative ...not even close....
They just minting money...enjoying AI boom

Perplexity raises $73.6M at $520M valuation
Perplexity raises $73.6M from the likes of some big names like Jeff Bezos, Naval, Balaji, NVIDIA. Just last month Mistral raised more than $400M in its second funding. AI based startups are the future I guess?
